This week we learned about Gideon, who won the battle, because God gave him confidence and He gives us confidence to Trust His Plans.
This week we made paintings and mixed the colors on the paper by blowing the paint with a straw. We made Turkey handprints, and easel painted. We also made a black and white collage.
This week in small group we listened to different sounds and tried to guess what they were, and we played an animal sound bingo. We repeated a rhythm by clapping then we used rhythm instruments. We did patterning with our bear counters. We also played, which shape is missing?
We enjoy building with our blocks. We emptied the cutting sensory table and put in rice, and we used the geo boards to make pictures with the rubber bands. When we use the geo boards we strengthen our hand muscles to stretch and pull the bands and place them on the small pegs.
We have talked about what we are thankful for and here are the children's responses:
God
